Unlike the rest of us industry that are regulated by OSHA mines are regulated by MSHA which has far greater authority and does not operate cooperatively like OSHA does. It has created an “us vs them” mentality and a culture of fear of enforcement. Compound the above with the specific regulatory targeting of coal which has occurred under some administrations and you have a recipe for distrust and fear.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7577633936396294153.post-90148740399629252172018-10-28T18:47:35.385-05:002018-10-28T18:47:35.385-05:00Mines are more adversarial, and flat out mean spir...Mines are more adversarial, and flat out mean spirited towards preservationists, industrial archaeologists and historians than any other industry I've had an interest in. They are against photography most of the time. I think they fear environmentalists catching them doing something "bad" and posting it. They also fear getting caught in any safety violation inadvertently, and thus incurring litigation and/or fines. Railroads are often hostile to rail fans, too - and often justified because of reckless trespassing to get pictures. Yet some railroads have realized that fans are among their biggest advocates and a political resource not to be casually dismissed. Mining companies should take a lesson there.
